No prob! But they're not much to see xD I think the GT Backwoods performs better but somehow the Giant XtC Team looks better (anyone notice the DJ bike trend?). My GT Backwoods has full XT and a nice Rock Shox SID XC which are still in tip-top condition now (hardly used). I guess it's the color theme of my Giant that makes it nice.. black/yellow.. matching yellow pedals.. hey Ober guess what I cabut the bottle cage like you said, it's been a bane recently - If I wear long or 3/4 pants it always somehow manage to hook itself on the bottle cage I should post the specs soon.. both bikes LOL.. one XC and one DJ bike.

Oh yeah BTW Adrian have you been to Kiara before?

I'd prefer if you call me TechnoDude94 and not my real name (Adrian) as this is the "internutzz". TIA. Btw, I haven't been to Kiara "yet".

dicky,leave them alone.
The same kinds are always backing up their own kind.
flatfinger has a point though, no point arguing with them.

what do you mean by those china ppl? what has this got to do with race?
if anything, the ppl who went and caused a huge traffic jam in KL on saturday and got teargas in their eyes for their troubles were by and large Malay.
really this is not about winning or losing. it is a life lesson, if you cannot take criticism even when it is constructive, you are not going to be much good in life because everybody is a critic and will say even meaner things.
in any case, i have no argument with you, just a different viewpoint to yours.
perhaps, this inability to take criticism, a culture fostered by the government of the day is to blame for some of the problems we see today.

dude,
did not condemn flatfinger, just said his english needed work that is all.
and dude, we are all brothers here on 2 wheels, how did it become ur kind and some other kind?
if i didnt want to help him, i would have just said he was crap and left it at that.
then someone came flying out saying i had "shamed" flatfinger.

as for china ppl, ober already clarified that so enough said.

peace dude,
we are all bros on wheels, must take care of each other la. if not, no point la this forum. if say improve english abit also drama, imagine in the real world if you told somebody to take a different racing line down the hill? you would think downhillers have thicker skin than that?

Added on March 11, 2009, 12:11 pmtechnodude94: my lbs says he can get them for 50 something a piece. i was thinking of swtiching from fire xc pro and cinder combo to that. but right now no duit la.

this last few days a few kids is working on a mini downhill trail (500 meters) nearby our house. nothing much for now... but scary as hell.. last section is so steep i think it's almost 70 - 80 degrees vertical then followed by a fast right turn with the berm only 1 feet high. the trail end with a few under construction tabletop (hoping to make them 3 feet or higher). will help them looking for sugar sack for the tabletop. the rain slows the progress.

these kids got balls. 2 of them riding a bust up bmx.

When recession strikes, then we hit the LBSes, if we didn't lose money by crumpling stocks. Don't buy things yet (be it electronical).

May I know what does "ghost shifting" mean? And if it's so good, why doesn't Shimano use "1:1 actuation ratio" in their drive trains.

dude,
i dont really know where gives a good deal to be honest but my lbs seems quite reasonable but his choice is limited lo and he has to order if you want the branded stuff. but i think he is would be cheaper than places like ksh or bikepro since it is just a 1 man show. walao! 2 thin strips of rubber will cost me a new tire for my avanza at those places!
how come we dont see anymore trail vids with your helmet cam?

1:1 actuation ratio, if not mistaken, is patented by SRAM...

and shimano had been using 2:1 all the while, if they suddenly change to 1:1, there'll be conflicts in parts...
